Abstract Soybean (Glycine max (L.) Merrill) is the most widely cultivated oilseed crop and faces significant yield challenges due to drought stress. Canopy temperature has been proposed as an effective proxy for evaluation of differences in genotypic responses to water limitation, as well as indirectly assessing transpiration and stomatal conductance ...

ABSTRACT Dual‐purpose corn cropping is a widespread and economically important agricultural activity in Brazilian rural areas. The objective of this work was to study the structural quality of a dystrophic Red‐Yellow Ultisol under different tillage systems, previous crops and inoculant treatments, and its relationship with corn yield.

Lipid composition of millet (Pennisetum americanum) seeds [PDF]
AbstractThe composition of lipids extracted from a sample of millet seeds by each of 8 solvent systems is reported. Lipid components were separated by silicic acid column and thin layer chromatography (TLC) and quantitated by analysis of fatty acid methyl esters by gas liquid chromatography (GLC), with heptadecanoic acid as internal standard.

Carbon and nitrogen release from cover crop roots is poorly predicted by their chemical composition
Abstract Root‐derived carbon (C) and nitrogen (N) release in relation to chemical composition has rarely been quantified in field studies. The objectives of this study were to evaluate C and N release from six summer cover crop roots and to correlate it with their chemical composition. Root decomposition and N release from velvet bean (Mucuna aterrima),

The oxidative stress caused by atrazine in root exudation of Pennisetum americanum (L.) K. Schum
Pearl millet (Pennisetum americanum (L.) K. Schum) has been proven as a potential remediation plant of the pollution caused by atrazine. Plants used in remediation can release root exudates to communicate with rhizosphere microorganisms and accelerate ...

A preliminary survey of primitive crops cultivated in the northern Transvaal of South Africa
The different tribal economies of South Africa rely extensively on a number of primitive crop taxa which are cultivated as a primary food source. The most important of these include Sorghum bicolor, Pennisetum americanum, Citrullus lanatus, Lagenaria ...

Metabolizable Energy Content of Pearl Millet [Pennisetum americanum (L.) Leeke]
Three experiments were conducted to determine the nitrogen-corrected metabolizable energy (MEn) content of ground pearl millet [Pennisetum americanum (L.) Leeke]. On a dry matter basis, 40% ground pearl millet was substituted for an equivalent amount of glucose monohydrate (reference substance) to determine MEn using male broiler chicks.
